Need 1 experienced owner, 15-tm(dual franchise) deep dynasty

#1 Post by scottyballgame »

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE. THIS LEAGUE IS VERY DETAILED AND THERE'S A LOT GOING ON OVER THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS LEADING UP TO THE SEASON.

Hey all. We're heading into our 3rd season of Diamond Duos - a 15 team, 6x6 Roto, deep dynasty league. It's a unique concept we came up with in January '13. (details below) We use ProBoards and Fantrax, with Fantrax Treasurer for payment. We need 1 final owner to take a over team. I need a knowledgeable, active replacement owner ASAP as we're now promoting players no longer minors eligible and we'll be starting our off-season free agency soon. We're hoping to start our Minors Draft tomorrow night but that may need to be pushed back a day or so to get new owner caught up and acclimated. It's a great time for a new owner to come on board.

Our Premium Fantrax Commissioner league site is paid "FOR LIFE." Only monies I'll collect each year will be our league fee - $40 for 2015. With a pot of about $600 we'll pay out to the Top 3 Roto finishers at end of season.

The team that's available right now (first-come, first-serve) is:
Colorado Rays- Initially comprised of primarily Rockies and Rays, although there are other teams' players as well following 2 seasons of FA signings and trades. If you're a fan of the Rockies or Rays, or are just looking to join a very unique, deep dynasty league, this could be a lot of fun for you! Check out the roster if you'd like and you can see the Majors and Minors squads as it is now:

The new 2015 roster will need to be posted on our 2015 Team Rosters thread once a new owner takes over.

Feel free to check out our league's ProBoards to see all the teams, activity, history and how we have everything structured.

Read the rules and let me know if you'd be interested. Our board and this league is very detailed, so please read carefully. We've had a lot of discussions (mostly pre-season) on the board too.

Rosters: 40-man Majors (25 active, 15 reserve) and Minor League Farm System (max of 60 prospects).
Each owner selected 2 MLB franchises (1 AL and 1 NL) entering our first season. Up to a maximum of 15 players from each MLB franchise were kept and the remaining roster spots were filled via a bidding draft among all remaining players. We used real-life MLB contracts/salaries for the initial keepers in 2013 and are currently working off of a $175M salary cap for the 40-man roster. All minor leaguers are $0 and don't count against the cap until the year following their activation, and then they're at an initial $500,000 salary for the first 4 years.

Minor league farm was initially comprised of up to 25 players per MLB franchise, for a max of 50 going into the first season. We then upped the max to 60 in-season and allow one prospect claim per month. Minor leaguers in Diamond Duos are players with less than 130 ABs, 50 IP, or 20 pitching appearances in the Majors.

Contact me via email at scotty.ballgame@comcast.net, on this forum, or on Twitter if you'd like to get in. No league application but interested parties should be ready to provide fantasy baseball experience if needed. Check us out on Twitter too. @DiamondDuos is the handle.

Thanks,
Scott

Colorado Rays team was filled prior to the 2015 season. We now have an opening in Diamond Duos for a different team.

Owner with Detroit Brewers team (it's a dual franchise league, with 15 owners) is leaving the league. He said he'd manage the team thru end of season but if you're interested you can take it over sooner than later.

http://diamondduos.proboards.com is the league ProBoards site.
DET Brewers roster is at: http://diamondduos.proboards.com/thread ... 015-roster

League Constitution is at: http://diamondduos.proboards.com/thread ... nstitution

League fee for the year is already taken care of. Next year it will be about $50. This league's Fantrax site fee is paid "FOR LIFE" so we only have our league fee which goes to the Roto pot. 65%/25%/10% payouts to the Top 3 Roto finishers. It's a 6x6 with OPS and Holds, but we may vote on changing up a couple categories such as AVG and Wins and moving toward categories such as OBP, SLG or possibly Total Bases and either/or Quality Starts and K/9 on the pitching side.

Let me know what you think. I can be reached via email at scotty.ballgame@comcast.net or on Twitter at @Scotty_Ballgame.

Thanks,
Scott

PS - If you're interested in this concept and instead of taking over an established team would like to get in from the ground up, I'm launching Diamond Duos III for 2016. 3 open spots as of 8/28/15. Let me know if you'd be interested in that or the Detroit Brewers team in Diamond Duos.
